This girl has already zero hope, she can't make it worse, lmao.

@immortalartisan wow, Chinese scams are in a whole different level >o<

While I'm definitely enjoying seeing the little prince all grown up, reeeeeally not liking the oedipal implications of Su "Ziyue" romancing him. Like, on Luxia's part there's nothing going on (like there never is for any of the MLs she's romanced or ended up with), but on the prince's part, he's basically falling in love with his mom...........

Technically nothing untoward is actually happening. He isn't aware that Ziyue's possessed by Luxia rn, and it's not like people's types aren't influenced by their parents' personality traits, but. The vibes, man, they're bad.

Oedipus complex aside, it is really fun to see a ML who doesn't actually fall for any of the schemes

I find it really hilarious that the Prince/Emperor is so fed up throughout this "Ugh why do I have to go along with this? " but he's gotta bc he's the authority figure and he can't get rid of this annoying person for the sake of politeness XD

 

[sienau]

Lmao when do these villains learn BWAHAHHA

 

[Podi125]

@reedercat I have a feeling that she plans on telling him at some point. Either that or he will find out on his own. He's only been amused by her presence so far so I'm hoping it stays like that.

For those who curious about what would happen to ziyue and emperor

Spoiler

they would marry, but they dont have romantic feeling to each other. Its completely platonic

 

[Athedite]

Sacrificing others to save ur own skin... she’s the lowest of the lowest

 

[Miyono-chan]

....one jade for three silver and three for ten silver? Is that really a "bargain"? I mean, that's like going to buy an avocado at the supermarket when there's a tree in the backyard (yeah, my house has an avocado tree in the backyard because my mom loves it )

 

[practicallyuseful]

I want Miss servant to do a 180 and turn on this bish.
BAM instant karma

 

[SaitoHimea]

@immortalartisan wow... just wow. I have no word on this scamming method...

 

[geraldine08172006]

She kissed him!...and will fl tell the emperor she's actually the late empress dowager?

 

[GwenBlanketKnight]

it would require sharing the same genes to be incest.

 

[Keir]

I feel bad for poor little guy...

 

[Mi-chan]

1 for 3 coins. 3 for 10 coins...... isn't that just a scam??

 

[Aoife0605]

honestly this girl was smart
the only thing that made the difference was that she never expected this much rise in intelligence and scheming
i mean on one hand it IS logical too, you cant become this smart in just few days its just unfathomable.
welp i guess whether they r smart or not doesnt matter in the slightest they'll meet the same end if they being such bitches xD
but maybe if she had used someone else as a medium and just followed along to add fuel to the fire rather than being the ringleader herself, she'd have had an easier way out ..........
oh dumbo poor dearie, su luxia has taught me at least this much till now.

 

[Aoife0605]

@Mi-chan
immortalartisan explained it below in the comments
here-

"There’s an old tale of a melon seller who would sell mellons for 3 each and 3 for 10. Because of it people always bought 3 but as separate purchases and then boast about it. The man would then remind them he sold them 3 when they intended to buy 1."

yea thats pretty much a scam but really now i just find it a really beautiful idea xD

 

[OmegaKaiser]
